I have an existing Eagle design that I'm migrating to Fusion 360. The current design does not have any 3D packages in the library. I've successfully uploaded the board, schematic and library to Fusion. I've also added 3D packages to all the components I use in the design. I'm stumbling trying to figure out how to update the existing components in the design to include the 3D packages.
In Eagle, if I made a change to a footprint or symbol, I'd save the library then re-add the part to the schematic. I wouldn't actually place the part, but in the process of adding it, Eagle would tell me it would update the existing parts to match the new version in the library. This processes doesn't seem to work in Fusion.
I think it is because the Fusion thinks the library used by the components still lives on my local computer, which is distinct from the updated library in the Fusion cloud. I know I can delete the component from the schematic and re-add the new one, but I'd prefer to update in place. How do I do this?
Also, in the library Fusion library manager, I removed all the stock libraries that I don't use. I only use my own personal library. But for some reason, all the other libraries re-appeared under the "In Use" tab. Not sure what happened there. I removed all the libraries again. Hopefully they'll stay away.
